The explosion of racial violence in Charlotte, N.C. has led to a gun buying spree by locals worried about their safety.
At Hyatt Guns, one of the nation's largest, staff arrived Thursday morning after the second night of riots and encountered a line of buyers.
...
"Sales last night were brisk. Most of the purchases were self defense shotguns and 12 gauge buckshot," he said.
"We had people waiting at the door this morning who are looking at similar guns. People that were on the fence about buying a gun prior to last night are now making that purchase," added Anderson.

Good
Surely no democRATS bought any. Because guns are simply evil.
Break out the guns and ammo
Because there’s something in the air.
Sadly, I bet I know the RACE of 90% of the people who lined up to LEGALLY obtain a LEGAL firearm for potential self-defence.
Imagine that, hundreds more legal gun owners, excercising their 2nd Amendment rights, reluctantly acting in their own self defence. This, by the way IS gun control...the key word being LEGAL, according to law. Amazing.
These are people who did not purchase guns, until the moment they felt, deeply, the sense of NEED. When the citizen no longer feels secure in their home and life, then this country is truly in deep, deep trouble.
Go Donald.
I had a conversation with our plumber who’s been paying attention to the BLM crap and all the rioting and said this BLM stuff is all BS and that they are faking false anger before and tangents before knowing all the facts.
He said all the riots are making him want to buy more guns. He just bought a new Sig Sauer 1911 .45 cal
People need to take a step back and understand what is happening. Why Charlotte where it was a black cop shooting an armed criminal and not Tulsa?
Well, Democrats aren’t winning Oklahoma. And Hillary is losing the black vote, especially in east coast enclaves. If Hillary doesn’t carry Charlotte, she doesn’t carry NC.
This riot is nothing more than fooling the black community to come back to the plantation. Meanwhile, Hillary hasn’t said a word about this. Why?
How many of these new gun buyers and new gun buyers across the nation since Obama will vote for Trump?
She has said some words. She has fanned the flames.
You are right on.
I see what you mean. The violence could have been fomented by outside agitators sent to Charlotte rather Tulsa, for political reasons related to the elections.
Could be. But IMO whatever gain the Dems get in black turnout would be more than offset by increased white turnout against them.
We know there’s big money (e.g., Soros) funding the BLM movement. I just don’t see how the riots help. But then, I ain’t rich either!
By the time you need a gun, it’s too late to buy one.
Be prepared.
I went home with a waitress the way I always do
How was I to know she was with the Russians, too?
I was gambling in Havana - I took a little risk
Send lawyers, guns, and money
Dad, get me out of this
An innocent bystander
Somehow I got stuck between a rock and a hard place
And I’m down on my luck
Yes, I’m down on my luck
Well, I’m down on my luck
I’m hiding in Honduras - I’m a desperate man
Send lawyers, guns, and money
The shit has hit the fan
Send lawyers, guns, and money...
Shotguns don’t require a license or a background check in most states.
Well I know a whole line of peeps that got screwed. Hyatt Gun Shop is mighty proud of their stock.
Back when I used to work gun shows at a collector table I always found it amusing that on Sunday late afternoon, after the pay-to-enter booth had shut down there'd always be that one roving band of about 4-5 bruthas walking around with eyes "this big" watching the white folk arm up.
I may be wrong, but I think those fellas were gettin a clue right then as to how things really work. d;^)
In celebration of the 2016 Charlatan Riot iam going out to get both Mrs. 51 and I handguns this weekend. I want to try out several with the crimson laser option.
And yet there were still white people being beaten at random. I just cannot understand why everyone is carrying a gun now, how much of this do we need see? It is not going to stop, until it is stopped by force. Or the police just walk off the job, then its Katie bar the door.
“Captain Obvious, please pick up the white phone.”
I hope they’re smarter than me. Every time I get a new gun, I go boating. That never ends well, but I never learn.
